- ajross 11y agoThe overwhelming majority of readers of Hacker News are not employees of the balooning private startups being discussed. Their companies have no equity exchange possibility at all. Seriously, how many employees are there in the world of companies that could take "please exit" as serious advice? A few hundred, tops? And these are hardly impoverished folks to begin with, they could get solid six figure jobs at established tech companies in most cases. So why are we crying for them?
